1. This title was commissioned on 1-02-03 and a tournament was held on 1-25-03 with the finals being Big Bad John pinning Magnum Steele to become the first champion.

2. Big Bad John was stripped of the belt due to three no shows on a title match and the non title defense rule was placed into effect. Magnum was upset that Big John did not show up for his title match so he was successful in his petition to the board to allow the match. The NWA CWFL championship committee gave Magnum Steele and the Outlaw Joe Woods the chance to face each other for the Mid Florida title. Magnum pinned Joe Woods after 18 minutes 42 seconds.
